Berating people for doing something you yourself term as "e-peen value", only undermines your own argument, to a point of nonsense.
Can I ask why you are on a forum for overclockers and "extreme" systems, if you feel it is no more than a "e-peen" thing?
well then... why dont you go buy a 4 socket mobo and use 4 opteron ... xs has a group buy for those ... more power for your use that no oc'd dually could give you ... and i heard they are cheap too .... so one more argument as to why you would oc a server mobo besides e-peen ...
Because you don't have to spend a fortune to be extreme
There's more to extremesystems about having the most expensive setups. In fact the most impressive ones (outside of the guys who have access to the best products+cooling) are generally the builds that were low in cost but heavily modded to have top level performance. I think that's the true nature of XS; just like extenze it's not about having the biggest one in the world, but rather maximizing what you got.
Ohh and I totally deserve bonus points for linking XS to extenze in a positive way
exactly ... overclocking's true nature was to take cheapo cpu's and make em give a run for their money to big top bin cpu's .....
